Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A canterbury is a low, open wooden stand divided into vertical compartments, originally created in the late 18th and early 19th centuries to hold sheet music, bound volumes, or periodicals.

High-end furniture from the William IV period was typically constructed from solid and veneered rosewood or mahogany, featuring hand-carved scrollwork, dovetail-jointed drawers, and brass castors.

Authentic period pieces display hand-sawn dovetails within the drawer construction, original brass castors, natural grain figures characteristic of aged rosewood, and carved joinery without modern machinery marks.

Position this functional accent piece alongside an armchair or sofa to store art books, magazines, or vinyl records, combining historical woodwork with contemporary living space needs.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish twice yearly along the timber grain, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
